Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 02/28/2019
The action sequences are mostly terrific: impactful, surprising and brilliantly choreographed...It's undergirded by a decent mystery-thriller storyline and two very appealing leads. Go to Full Review Peter Debruge Variety 10/08/2018
Action comes easy to Korean director Kim; it's actors that he doesn't always know what to do with. Go to Full Review James Mudge easternKicks.com 10/24/2020
2/5
Convoluted, over-long and lacking in either compelling characters or exciting action - a real case of wasted potential Go to Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia 07/26/2020
5/10
It's a boring, conventional, and overly long remake. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse 12/01/2019
it does not surpass the average, and in my book, particularly due to its specific premises (great source material, big budget, great director and cast), the movie is a failure, particularly because it could have been so much more. Go to Full Review William Schwartz HanCinema 06/21/2019
While the movie is technically masterful, the moral implications are profoundly disturbing, and only made worse by the tacked-on happy ending. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Rosana B 05/29/2023 Adoro filmes com futuros distópicos, aqui temos um exemplar oriental, com seus tiros e bombas, mas que na verdade são um pano de fundo para trama principal de traição, corrupção, receitas governo e rebeldes... Longo, bem longo, o que o torna bem entediante no meio para o final, quando a ação explode, o plot Twist, até o desfecho final... Ainda se mantenha a regularidade e é um filme razoável...
